Move-in day





Well, to backtrack just a bit, in an effort to catch you all up on our past week, I thought I'd post something about the day we moved into our home here. It was Wednesday, January 13th when the truck came and about 20-25 people from our new church were here to help us unload. Sounds like close to the number of people who helped us load the same container at our Tremont home a month earlier. Funny how God can provide for our needs on both sides of the Atlantic... :-) We are finding this out every day here, as He continues to show us His power and grace!

By the end of moving day, we were thrilled that everything made it and that no one was hurt with the unloading of the piano or the 4-wheeler! I (Wendi) have yet to see if we really needed to bring that thing! :-) I sat and breathed that sigh of relief I was looking forward to breathing once we were all in our house and had our things here with us. We were so blessed by the demonstrations of kindness by the people here, as they provided meal after meal, help galore, cleaning ladies, translators, etc. to make this transition as easy for us as possible.

The man walking Shaylee is the pastor of our new church. He and his wife have been very helpful in so many ways. The boys with our boys at the table are the two friends they have already met.

Your postings are an encouragement to me as we plan and prepare for our big move. Thanks for reminding me of how the Lord provides!
